Who We Are

NearMe Victoria is a group of creators and local guides that have compiled our joint knowledge to create an honest guide to all Things to Do in Victoria, BC and throughout Vancouver Island. Built on our passion for creating content, we will always focus on making exciting photo and video content to share out into the world, bringing the local eyes and aspiring adventurers to Vancouver Island.

Our Content Philosophy

As creators, we know how hard it is for creative minds to make a living. Creating content is an art and it deserves to be appreciated by businesses and attractions that gain exposure from the content. That is why all creators associated with the content on our page for commercial purposes are compensated for their content. We still encourage all creators to tag and message our page, we are constantly looking to expand our content mix and page creator team. But, everyone should be aware that, if we use content on our pages or website, we want to make sure the creators are getting something in return for it. 

As a creative and wildlife photographer from Vancouver Island, I am passionate about exploring our local places. One thing I have learned so far, I can spend a lifetime on our Island, and not even be close to seeing it all

Jared VanderMeer

Born and raised in Victoria, BC I’m just a girl with a passion for fashion who loves to try and experience new things. One fun thing to know about me is I’m a huge nerd who loves anime, video games and movies.
